Tracks A2 and B2 are apparently from the soundtrack.
Info on back sleeve: "Compositeur: Morricone – Arrangements et direction musicale: Bruno Nicolai"
The latter part would make more sense if it read: "Arrangements: Ennio Morricone; Direction musicale: Bruno Nicolai"
Nicolai was indeed the conductor of the soundtrack, but Morricone always did his own arrangements.
